Here are relatively recent shows that got in for Comedy Series but were not known for their comedy.

Orange is the New Black
12 nominations – 2014

Glee
16 nominations – 2010
12 nominations – 2011

Ugly Betty
11 nominations – 2007

Desperate Housewives
15 nominations – 2005

Ally McBeal
10 nominations – 1998
13 nominations – 1999

Transparent
11 nominations – 2015
10 nominations – 2016

Atlanta
6 nominations – 2017

Girls
5 nominations – 2012
5 nominations – 2013

Sex and the City
2 nominations – 1999
9 nominations – 2000
10 nominations – 2001
10 nominations – 2002
12 nominations – 2003
10 nominations – 2004

Do you think this could hurt Atlanta this year given that revivals and new shows will be a factor that are more funny ones, at least in tone? Do you think The Marvelous Mrs Maisel will surpass any of these shows to get more nominations than any of the dramedies that were nominated in the past to become the most nominated Comedy Series of all time?

I had never realized until now that since 2000 only one real dramedy has one best comedy and it was Sex in the City in 2001.

Regarding Atlanta though, despite it being more of a drama than comedy at times I think voters are still confident voting for it as a series (and the best one at that) given its almost sitcom like structure of 30 minute story-contained episodes, unlike namely Glee and Transparent who were more known for their overall season arc.
